Finding this lighthouse was never that easy. It is located inside Philippine Coast Guard Headquarters along the mouth of the Pasig River. But before entering the PCG gate, one must walk through the congested shanties along the narrow street of Muelle studio luce De La Industria from Delpan Bridge. studio luce This venture, perhaps, would only be dared by a handful. It was a relief to finally reach the gate of PCG compound after that 300 meter or so walk. Before entering the compound, I have to ask permission first to the Guard and after a little questioning on my purpose, I was allowed to go to the lighthouse area and take pictures. A buiding, looks like a gymnasium, is being built next to the lighthouse and the construction materials are scattered all over. I asked one of the Guards to accompany me, and to studio luce be my personal photographer, hehe! The Pasig River Light, also know for its old name Faro Y Luces De Rio Pasig, was built in 1642 erected to protect the country's flourishing maritime industry at the height of the Galleon Trade and studio luce the oldest light station in the Philippines. The original structure has been replaced in 1992, completely altered with studio luce a more modern design, but sadly, its elegance and grandeur completely lost.
Loyd Martinez Imus, Cavite, Philippines I love to travel, move from place to place, travel by airplanes, buses, studio luce trains, studio luce ferries, tricycles and habal-habals alone or with strangers I meet along the way. I am delighted with every new discovery I make - be it with places, food, customs, or people. I will never get tired of walking, running or flying. I will perpetually do this as long as I live.
